Shortly after the admission of Defendant Stx'awser's mother to Plaintiff Beverly's skilled nursing care facility, she allegedly became insolvent. As a result, an application for Medical Assistance benefits was subsequently filed. 6. The application referenced above was denied on December 27, 2006, because Defendant Strawser failed to provide the Cumberland County Assistance Office with those documents necessary to determine his mother's eligibility for Medical Assistance benefits. See Exhibit "A." 7. At all times material hereto, Defendant has refused to cooperate with the Medical Assistance application process and has refused to provide the information and documentation necessary for that process. 8. Subsequently, Plaintiff Beverly filed an appeal of the Cumberland County Assistance Office's denial of the above-referenced application for Medical Assistance benefits, and said appeal is currently pending before the Pennsylvania Bureau of Hearings and Appeals. 9. If Defendant Strawser fails to provide the documents requested by the Cumberland County Assistance Office prior to or at the time of the hearing scheduled on the aforementioned appeal, it will be denied, and any further appeal to the Commonwealth Court would be without merit. 2 COUNTI SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE,/STATUTORY DUTY OF SUPPORT Plaintiff Beverly v Defendant Strawser 10.
